Hi all, I've been using JiBX 1.2.1 + CodeGen on a few large and complex schemas used in inter-bank communication. So far JiBX proved to be fast, effective, and reliable. CodeGen is also a great improvement over what was available in 1.6. Great job Dennis!
Given the structure and size (> 200MB) of the XML files that we expect to receive we cannot hold the collections of some objects in memory during both unmarshalling and marshalling. Currently this is the only option because the generated classes have their List implementation hardcoded to ArrayList. I have been playing with class decorators and I have been able to nicely alter the generated classes structure adding a few extra fields and methods needed by our infrastructure but now I need to change the implementation of List from ArrayList to our own derived class that overrides the add() and get() methods to perform our business logic. At the moment I'm thinking of using the ClassDecorator finish() method to scan the completed class structure and perform the changes. I also thought about using the valueAdded() method but it seems to be called _after_ the value is added to the class and so it seems to provide no real value over a final pass in the finish() method. An alternative approach could be using the binding file and customize the List type implementation using the factory attribute but this works for unmarshalling only. Has anyone tried this before and care to comment? In the meantime I will keep experimenting the CodeGen route and also digging into the CodeGen sources to understand what happens but this is a longer road :-) Thanks everybody. -- Andrea Cisternino, Ferrara, Italy LinkedIn profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/andreacisternino Foto: http://acisternino.smugmug.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
